Mind Grind is a 1996 video game from Microforum International.

Gameplay

[edit]

Mind Grind is a five‑level trivia game in which alien contestants compete for the right to claim Earth by demonstrating superior knowledge of human trivia. Each level presents a distinct objective beyond answering questions, such as avoiding whirlwinds while climbing pillars or navigating a maze of gates. Throughout the game, a character named Homer serves as the host, offering instructions and reacting to the player's answers. The final level, titled "Looking for Intelligent Signs of Life", requires the player to pilot a ship through space, evade meteoroids, and shoot at crafts that contain trivia questions; taking too many hits ends the game. Saving and exiting returns the player to the start of the current level rather than its midpoint.[2]

Reception

[edit]

GameSpot said "Although Mind Grind tries to take an innovative approach to trivia gaming, it falls short of being a truly entertaining experience".[2]

Games Domain said "Otherwise, Mind Grind is a great choice for anyone looking for a well-rounded trivia game that can be enjoyed by all members of the family".[1]
